BIG RED T91203B Torin Hydraulic Welded Bottle Jack, 12 Ton (24,000 lb) Capacity, Red

ideal solution for pickups or trucks ... small enough to fit under the axle and lifts tall enough to lift frams if needed ideal combination and has lots of lifting power ... works great ... mine came with box saturated with hydraulic fluid from overpressure valve venting ... and it takes a LOT of pumping to raise it up so ... be a bit patient ... it is a high volume jack cylinder and a small pump volume ... good ratio to lift heavy loads ... but that means lots of pumping to get it up valve was "stiff" so expect to need a bit more force first few uses to get it open enough to go down ... and closed enough to go up. Once used a few times it is fine ... mostly they just painted the threads ... and you need to work that out of the threads on the "valve" unit first uses ... fine points of quality polish as not there ... but who cares ... it works, does as good a job as the 300 buck units ... and is durable as hell ... not buying it for an art exhibit anyhow ...

I use this jack for jacking up huge tree trunks so I can cut logs to the size I need. It works beautifully. I put a sturdy plywood under the jack to prevent it pushing into the ground instead of lifting the tree and a small piece of plywood between the tree and jack so it won't insert itself in the tree rather than lifting it. Cut off a few lengths, lower the jack, move it back down the tree trunk, jack it up again and cut off a bunch more. I'm talking about a 70 foot tall tree about 18 inches in diameter. Will be using it on others. There are other tools I have for smaller trees. But for the big ones this works great.

Bought two of them. They looked identical. Threaded out the ram extensions and no issues there. I pumped them both up about an inch and was able to push the ram down by hand and a little chest weight. Pretty much like any bottle jack of this size or smaller. Took one along with a shipping container lift and lifted a corner of my 40 foot hi-cube. This shipping container is full of stuff but this particular corner also had 700 lbs of bentonite clay piled in it. Lifted the container effortlessly, ram fully extended, but not before the jack submerged a 6" thick solid concrete retaining wall brick into the soft ground. I need a bigger brick. I should've taken a video but forgot. Soon I'll see how each lifts the back end of my 17k pound backhoe and post the results. Oh yeah. The top of the ram fit the pocket of this shipping container lift: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRRLZJWM?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

I got this as an emergency RV jack and it's great for that purpose. It has a small footprint and large capacity. The ram screws out for a greater reach if needed. I've used it a couple of times fixturing heavy beams for metalworking and welding, where I put a large amount of pressure on steel to hold it in position. The jack has worked well although it seems hesitant to lower. No matter how far out you twist the needle-valve, you need to put some pressure on the ram to lower it back after use.

My 6 ton would lift one corner of my travel trailer but with difficulty and effort. This one could lift the entire thing, and lifts one side of it with ease, I could barely tell I had a load on it. Well made, hefty, and not so tough to pull the piston down after use, though certainly not easy. Fit and finish are excellent. This is my 2nd Torin, I'll certainly buy another should I need one. Instructions are clear, though minimal, but it's pretty intuitive and straightforward, I read them as an afterthought. I'm going to serious look at their 20 ton with air over hydraulics for my next one.

I used a couple of these to do some repair work on the foundation of my home. They did the job easily. A little tough to use in confined spaces since you have to push down the ram manually. I had one leak a little fluid but I think it was because my son left the valve open and the jack on its side. Really no complaints.

This 12 ton bottle jack had one of the longest range from min. to max. which I needed. Looks well made. Worked well.

Used on small projects thus far. have not used it on heavy loads but it seems well built and it has worked on small jobs. Good instruction manual with it.

Does the job no bother

Nice jack easy to use

Le cric 50 tonnes en titre ne fait que 12

Fair price, quality, but it would be perfect, if it has hard case, comes with it.

All good apart from it loses pressure & drops
